🚨 🚨 🚨 URGENT: The Future of the Arts Needs You 🚨 🚨 🚨

The National Endowment for the Arts is facing devastating cuts - cancelled grants and a 50% staff reduction that threatens our nation’s creative infrastructure.

The NEA is not an optional investment—𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐧𝐞. Its grants support creative expression, mental health services for veterans, student achievement, and job creation in all 50 states and every Congressional district.

Senator Jon Ossoff is hosting a "Constituent Services in Your Community” event at Alpharetta City Hall Community Room next Thursday, March 27 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

This event is being held to help those who may require assistance with a Federal agency — for example, to access veterans’ benefits, expedite a passport renewal, resolve challenges with Social Security or Medicare, or recover funds owed to you by the IRS.

Please note: This event will be with Senator Ossoff’s constituent services team, not the Senator himself.

It is with profound sorrow that we share the devastating news of the loss of one of our officers. While serving the Roswell community and responding to a report of a suspicious person, a Roswell Police officer was shot and killed in the line of duty earlier this evening. The suspect was immediately located and taken into custody.

More information will be released in the coming days, but our priority now is to surround and support the family of our fallen officer and grieving department. We ask that your hearts and your prayers stand with us in doing the same.
